What Are The Lyrics For Mary On A Wave By Okkervil River?
Coal-black virgin spinning
Above an open ocean I hear, I feel, I need, I know Seven sailors swimming, shipwrecked Seven smudgy mirrors You gotta let 'em go Well I checked out the royal place Saw the babies all bathed in champagne So many miles of dirt I traveled Just to park here in your shade Borne away on a wave of love Borne away on a wave Well they picked poor Robin clean In the shadow ravine I seen the bones, I seen his teeth Well, it's scrawled upon the streets Our enemy's victory's complete And they'll be coming to collect within the next few hundred weeks I get a little soft shiver in my shoulder Cause I think there's someone watching I get a little soft whistle in my ears now But I guess it's just time passing Borne away on a wave of love Borne away on a wave Blessed blue-black virgin shifting In the ocean's rhythm Partly living tissue, partly always hidden Give me strength & vision Watch over the earth It's listing, lady, like it's almost broken Are my eyes now closed or opened? Our parents are fading out, fading out, fading out Into the fuzzy fuzz "I can't", I gasp, I gasp and pant I can't get enough air into my lungs I see the bald head of a vulture Come cresting up the stairs Time holds me, greenish-brown And dying, in a studio somewhere Borne away on a wave of love And it's all for you, girl Borne away on a wave |
